Belt drive, twin supertrapp adjustable silencers, dual leather looking seats, rear pop open side storage. Looking from the rear of the bike gives you a very 60's Vespa feeling.

SW-1 was released on February 26, 1992. Appearance is a combination of futuristic and nostalgic retro design with a full cover body and with lots of curves. It was awarded the 1992 Good Design Award.

Concept design was done by Naoki Sakai , the "SW" in it's name is derived from the initials of the Water Studios.
